You can effect a paper publication. But the concern authority have to accept your name's mistake. So just send a representation to the election commissioner with relevant documents. They will correct your wife's name in voter list. While next election your wife can comply her democratic duty. For your information now itself your wife can vote by showing any other supporting identity cards. Cos however the voter id will show her face. Typical error in voter id is very usual one. No one will stop her.

Yes Mr.Tom, you are 100% correct.
Mr.Anil is having issues only with voter ID. He can apply to the election department for corrections and get a new Voter ID.
The news paper publications are not necessary.
